Aging Gracefully with Healthy Plant Foods
|
|
|
|
We’re used to telling our kids and grandkids to “eat your vegetables” or “have a piece of fruit instead of candy,” but when it comes to our own health, we just seem to assume that those rapidly accumulating aches and pains are part of the aging process. We don’t try to do anything about them until they become debilitating, and by then the damage is done.

The Omega Balance
|
|
|
|
Research into omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids tells a dramatic story. Studies suggest that the human race originally evolved on a diet with a 1:1 ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 essential fatty acids. Our bodies still strive for that nutritional balance. However, typical lifestyles lack this indispensible balance. Diets tend to contain omega-6 to omega-3 ratios of 15:1, or higher.

Vitamin B12 Deficiency
|
|
|
|
Nobody worries about vitamin and mineral deficiencies any more. People often don’t even remember diseases like rickets, or scurvy or pellagra that used to plague civilizations. True vitamin deficiencies are so rare as to be non-existent in medical records lately. Today, however, we have a new concern—subclinical deficiencies of vitamins and minerals that may be associated with chronic disease development while showing no outward signs and symptoms of disease. It’s just aging, right?

Hippocrates, the Greek physician regarded as the father of modern medicine, stated, "If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health."
